Users of Word 2000/XP/2003

Here for your interest is the way to set up a Calculate Menu Item in Microsoft Word 2000/XP/2003

We had such an item in Word 2.0 and used it so much we couldn’t give it up.  Here is how to implement it in the more recent versions…

  1. Choose [Tools] and [Customize] and go to the ‘Commands’ tab.
  2. Select the category [All Commands]  then scroll to [ToolsCalculate]
  3. Click on the [ToolsCalculate] item using the left mouse button and drag it to the desired menu (probably [Tools]) and then to the desired position on the [Tools] list Finally leave in place or adjust the default name (We adjusted it to read: Tools &Calculate)


Now any time you select a column of numbers you can total them by choosing  [Tools] and [Tools Calculate].  .  This will also place the total on the clip board, so your previously cut or copied item is lost but you can now paste in the total anywhere you’d like.


Users of Word 6.0

Here for your interest is the way to set up a Calculate Menu Item in Microsoft Word 6.0

We had such an item in Word 2.0 and used it so much we couldn’t give it up.  Here is how to implement it in Word 6.0

  1. Choose [Tools] and [Customize] and go to the ‘Menus’ tab.
  2. Select the category [All Commands]  then scroll to [ToolsCalculate]
  3. Next Select the ‘Change What Menu’: I choose &Tools and ‘Position on Menu’:  I choose  ---(Separator)----
    after [Envelopes & Labels] Finally Provide the desired name by typing it in: &Calculate

Finally select ‘Add Below’ and then close.

Now any time you select a column of numbers you can total them by choosing [Tools] and [Calculate].  This will also place the total on the clip board, so your previously cut or copied item is lost but you can now paste in the total anywhere you’d like.
